BY BINLOG_KILLED_SIMULATE.TEST
'mysqbinlog' tool creates a temporary file while
preparing LOAD DATA QUERY. These files needs to be deleted
at the end of the test script otherwise these files are
left out in the daily-run machines, causing
"no space on device issues"
Fix:
Delete them at the end of these test scripts
1) execute mysqlbinlog with --local-load option to
create these files in a specified tmpdir
2) delete the tmpdir at the end of the test script
USING THE PLUGIN INTERFACE.
ISSUE: No support for floating-point plugin
system variables.
SOLUTION: Allowing plugins to define and expose floating-point
system variables of type double. MYSQL_SYSVAR_DOUBLE
and MYSQL_THDVAR_DOUBLE are added.
ISSUE: Fractional part of the def, min, max values of system
variables are ignored.
SOLUTION: Adding functions that are used to store the raw
representation of a double in the raw bits of unsigned
longlong in a way that the binary representation
remains the same.
WITH COMPOSITE KEY COLUMNS
Problem:-
While running a SELECT query with several AGGR(DISTINCT) function
and these are referring to different field of same composite key,
Returned incorrect value.
Analysis:-
In a table, where we have composite key like (a,b,c)
and when we give a query like
select COUNT(DISTINCT b), SUM(DISTINCT a) from ....
here, we first make a list of items in Aggr(distinct) function
(which is a, b), where order of item doesn't matter.
and then we see, whether we have a composite key where the prefix
of index columns matches the items of the aggregation function.
(in this case we have a,b,c).
if yes, so we can use loose index scan and we need not perform
duplicate removal to distinct in our aggregate function.
In our table, we traverse column marked with <-- and get the result as
(a,b,c) count(distinct b) sum(distinct a)
treated as count b treated as sum(a)
(1,1,2)<-- 1 1
(1,2,2)<-- 1++=2 1+1=2
(1,2,3)
(2,1,2)<-- 2++=3 1+1+2=4
(2,2,2)<-- 3++=4 1+1+2+2=6
(2,2,3)
result will be 4,6, but it should be (2,3)
As in this case, our assumption is incorrect. If we have
query like
select count(distinct a,b), sum(distinct a,b)from ..
then we can use loose index scan
Solution:-
In our query, when we have more then one aggr(distinct) function
then they should refer to same fields like
select count(distinct a,b), sum(distinct a,b) from ..
-->we can use loose scan index as both aggr(distinct) refer to same fields a,b.
If they are referring to different field like
select count(distinct a), sum(distinct b) from ..
-->will not use loose scan index as both aggr(distinct) refer to different fields.
WITH A PORT NUMBER ENCLOSED IN QUOTES
Problem: mysqldump --dump-slave --include-master-host-port
prints the CHANGE MASTER command in the generated logical
backup. The PORT number that is generated with this command
is a string and should be an integer.
Fix: Remove the Enclosed quotes for port number.
SCHEDULER DROPS EVENTS
Problem: On a semi sync enabled server (Master/Slave),
if event scheduler drops an event after completion,
server crashes.
Analaysis: If an event is created with "ON COMPLETION
NOT PRESERVE" clause, event scheduler deletes the event
upon event completion(expiration) and the thread object
will be destroyed. In the destructor of the thread object,
mysys_var member is set to zero explicitly. Later from
the same destructor call(same execution path),
incase of semi sync enabled server, while cleanup is called,
THD::mysys_var member is accessed by THD::enter_cond()
function which causes server to crash.
Fix: mysys_var should not be explicitly set to zero and
also it is not required.
--BINLOG-IGNORE-DB AND FULLY QUALIFIED TABLE
Problem:
=======
An ALTER TABLE statement is not written to binlog if server
started with "--binlog-ignore-db some database" and 'fully
qualified' table names are used in the ALTER TABLE statement
altering table different from current database context.
Analysis:
========
The above mentioned problem not only affects "ALTER TABLE"
statements but also to all kind of statements. Once the
current default database becomes "NULL" none of the
statements will be binlogged.
The current behaviour is such that if the user has specified
restrictions on which database needs to be replicated and the
default db is not specified, then do not replicate.
This means that "NULL" is considered to be equivalent to
everything (default db = null implied ignore don't log the
statement).
Fix:
===
"NULL" should not be considered as equivalent to everything.
Since the filtering criteria is not equal to "NULL" the
statement should be logged into binlog.
(Based on Sinisa's patch)
Added a version checking facility to mysql_upgrade.
The versions used for checking is the version of the
server that mysql_upgrade is going to upgrade and the
server version that mysql_upgrade was build/distributed
with.
Also added an option '--version-check' to enable/disable
the version checking.
PLATFORM= MACOSX10.6 X86_64 MAX
Problem: The test was failing on pb2's mac machine because
it was not cleaned up properly. The test checks if
the command 'start slave until' throws a proper
error when issued with a wrong number/type of
parameters. After this,the replication stream was
stopped using the include file 'rpl_end.inc'.
The errors thrown earlier left the slave in an
inconsistent state to be closed by the include
file which was caught by the mac machine.
Fix: Started slave by invoking start_slave.inc to have a
working slave before calling rpl_reset.inc
Problem: The test file was not in a good shape. It tested
start slave until relay log file/pos combination
wrongly. A couple of commands were executed at
master and replicated at slave. Next, the
coordinates in terms of relay log file and pos
were noted down followed by reset slave and start
slave until saved relay log file/pos. Reset slave
deletes all relay log files and makes the slave
forget its replication position. So, using the
saved coordiantes after reset slave is wrong.
Fix: Split the test in two parts:
a) Test for start slave until master log file/pos and
checking for correct errors in the failure
scenarios.
b) Test for start slave until relay log file/pos.
Problem: The variables auto_increment_increment and
auto_increment_offset were set in the the include
file rpl_init.inc. This was only configured for
some connections that are rarely used by test
cases, so likely that it will cause confusion.
If replication tests want to setup these variables
they should do so explicitly.
Fix:
a) Removed code to set the variables
auto_increment_increment and auto_increment_offset
in the include file.
b) Updated tests files using the same.
post push fix:
rpl_stm_until.test was disabled because of
this bug. Enabled and fixed it.
Removed a part of the test that was obsolete.
It tested replication from 4.0 master to 5.0
slave.

DOWNGRADED FROM 5.6.11 TO 5.6.10
Problem was new syntax not accepted by previous version.
Fixed by adding version comment of /*!50531 around the
new syntax.
Like this in the .frm file:
'PARTITION BY KEY /*!50611 ALGORITHM = 2 */ () PARTITIONS 3'
and also changing the output from SHOW CREATE TABLE to:
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT)
/*!50100 PARTITION BY KEY */ /*!50611 ALGORITHM = 1 */ /*!50100 ()
PARTITIONS 3 */
It will always add the ALGORITHM into the .frm for KEY [sub]partitioned
tables, but for SHOW CREATE TABLE it will only add it in case it is the non
default ALGORITHM = 1.
Also notice that for 5.5, it will say /*!50531 instead of /*!50611, which
will make upgrade from 5.5 > 5.5.31 to 5.6 < 5.6.11 fail!
If one downgrades an fixed version to the same major version (5.5 or 5.6) the
bug 14521864 will be visible again, but unless the .frm is updated, it will
work again when upgrading again.
Also fixed so that the .frm does not get updated version
if a single partition check passes.
Problem: Sys_vars suite is disabled in mysql-5.1 branch.
Fix: To enable sys_vars suite in mysql-5.1, add it in
mysql-test-run.pl file and also sys_vars suite should be
added to Makefile.am inorder to get that test directory
innodb_bug12400341.test is disabled for valgrind daily test.
It might be affected by the previous test's undo slots existing,
because of slower execution.
Due to an internal change in the server code in between 5.1 and 5.5
(wl#2649) the hash function used in KEY partitioning changed
for numeric and date/time columns (from binary hash calculation
to character based hash calculation).
Also enum/set changed from latin1 ci based hash calculation to
binary hash between 5.1 and 5.5. (bug#11759782).
These changes makes KEY [sub]partitioned tables on any of
the affected column types incompatible with 5.5 and above,
since the calculation of partition id differs.
Also since InnoDB asserts that a deleted row was previously
read (positioned), the server asserts on delete of a row that
is in the wrong partition.
The solution for this situation is:
1) The partitioning engine will check that delete/update will go to the
partition the row was read from and give an error otherwise, consisting
of the rows partitioning fields. This will avoid asserts in InnoDB and
also alert the user that there is a misplaced row. A detailed error
message will be given, including an entry to the error log consisting
of both table name, partition and row content (PK if exists, otherwise
all partitioning columns).
2) A new optional syntax for KEY () partitioning in 5.5 is allowed:
[SUB]PARTITION BY KEY [ALGORITHM = N] (list_of_cols)
Where N = 1 uses the same hashing as 5.1 (Numeric/date/time fields uses
binary hashing, ENUM/SET uses charset hashing) N = 2 uses the same
hashing as 5.5 (Numeric/date/time fields uses charset hashing,
ENUM/SET uses binary hashing). If not set on CREATE/ALTER it will
default to 2.
This new syntax should probably be ignored by NDB.
3) Since there is a demand for avoiding scanning through the full
table, during upgrade the ALTER TABLE t PARTITION BY ... command is
considered a no-op (only .frm change) if everything except ALGORITHM
is the same and ALGORITHM was not set before, which allows manually
upgrading such table by something like:
ALTER TABLE t PARTITION BY KEY ALGORITHM = 1 () or
ALTER TABLE t PARTITION BY KEY ALGORITHM = 2 ()
4) Enhanced partitioning with CHECK/REPAIR to also check for/repair
misplaced rows. (Also works for ALTER TABLE t CHECK/REPAIR PARTITION)
CHECK FOR UPGRADE:
If the .frm version is < 5.5.3
and uses KEY [sub]partitioning
and an affected column type
then it will fail with an message:
KEY () partitioning changed, please run:
ALTER TABLE `test`.`t1` PARTITION BY KEY ALGORITHM = 1 (a)
PARTITIONS 12
(i.e. current partitioning clause, with the addition of
ALGORITHM = 1)
CHECK without FOR UPGRADE:
if MEDIUM (default) or EXTENDED options are given:
Scan all rows and verify that it is in the correct partition.
Fail for the first misplaced row.
REPAIR:
if default or EXTENDED (i.e. not QUICK/USE_FRM):
Scan all rows and every misplaced row is moved into its correct
partitions.
5) Updated mysqlcheck (called by mysql_upgrade) to handle the
new output from CHECK FOR UPGRADE, to run the ALTER statement
instead of running REPAIR.
This will allow mysql_upgrade (or CHECK TABLE t FOR UPGRADE) to upgrade
a KEY [sub]partitioned table that has any affected field type
and a .frm version < 5.5.3 to ALGORITHM = 1 without rebuild.
Also notice that if the .frm has a version of >= 5.5.3 and ALGORITHM
is not set, it is not possible to know if it consists of rows from
5.1 or 5.5! In these cases I suggest that the user does:
(optional)
LOCK TABLE t WRITE;
SHOW CREATE TABLE t;
(verify that it has no ALGORITHM = N, and to be safe, I would suggest
backing up the .frm file, to be used if one need to change to another
ALGORITHM = N, without needing to rebuild/repair)
ALTER TABLE t <old partitioning clause, but with ALGORITHM = N>;
which should set the ALGORITHM to N (if the table has rows from
5.1 I would suggest N = 1, otherwise N = 2)
CHECK TABLE t;
(here one could use the backed up .frm instead and change to a new N
and run CHECK again and see if it passes)
and if there are misplaced rows:
REPAIR TABLE t;
(optional)
UNLOCK TABLES;
